Khalid is getting tons of support from his fans on social media after being publicly outed by his ex-boyfriend. He took to X (formerly Twitter) on Friday night to confirm the news. The drama began with him sharing a pride flag emoji, to which one user replied: “Wait hope Mr Khalid isn’t GEHHH!” The singer then fired back: “I am! And that’s okay.”
From there, he discussed his ex outing him. “I got outted and the world still continues to turn. Let’s get this straight (lmao) I am not ashamed of my sexuality! In reality it ain’t nobodies business! But I am okay with me [heart emojis] love yall,” Khalid wrote on the platform. When one fan accused him of being in the closet, he replied: “I wasn’t hiding anything! It’s just not any of your business.”

although the closet was made of glass, you should’ve had the right to tell the world on your own time (if you even wanted to). he’s weird for outing you like that. pay him dust and move on.
